Chievo Verona – AC Milan

Milan ended their twelve-game unbeaten run in all competition, as they suffered a loss at the hands of Sassuolo last Sunday (2-0). The Rossoneri displayed disappointing performance and allowed i Neroverdi to come only three points behind them in the table. Sinisa Mihajlovic will need to restore the confidence of his charges if he plans to keep pace with Inter in the race for the fifth position. Chievo were also defeated in the previous round, even though they got the opener against Napoli (3-1). The Mussi Volanti have been having their ups and downs in 2016, they managed to record only two victories in their last ten fixtures at Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi. Moreover, the Flying Donkeys took only two points from their previous eighteen meetings with Milan. San Siro outfit are in a must win situation if they want to play in Europe next season, and we predict Mihajlovic’s side will take the entire pray home.

Highligted Player (Diego Lopez):

Diego Lopez is a Spanish goalkeeper who plays for Milan in the Serie A. Lopez was born in Paradela on 3 November, 1981 and he played for Lugo during his youth career. He made two appearances for Lugo at senior level as well, but in 2000 he joined Real Madrid. The 196-cm-tall shoot-stopper played for both Real Madrid C and Real Madrid B and he made just two appearances for the first team during his first spell at Real Madrid. After spending five seasons at Villarreal (2007-2012) the Spanish goalkeeper played for Sevilla in the 2012/2013 La Liga campaign, but he made no more than eight league appearances for los Sevillanos. He returned to Real Madrid on January, 2013 and he quickly established himself as a first-team regular, replacing Iker Casillas in the starting XI. However, Real Madrid fans wanted to see Iker between the posts and, as a result, Diego Lopez was forced to join Milan in 2014. Lopez has only one cap for Spain national team.

Highlighted Team (AC Milan):

AC Milan are regarded as one of the biggest club in Italy. The Rossoneri compete in the Italian Serie A and they have won 18 domestic trophies. Speaking of the club’s European success, Milan have clinched seven Champions League (European Cup) trophies. Milan were on the verge of beating Liverpool in the 2005 Champions League final, but the Premier League outfit came from three goals behind and eventually won the prestigious trophy on penalties. The Rossoneri play their home games at Stadio San Siro (80,018), the stadium that was opened in 1926. It is well known that Milan’s bitterest rivals are Inter and there have always been fireworks when the two local rivals face each other in the Derby della Madonnina. Milan were founded in 1899 by a lace-maker from England named Herbert Kilpin and a businessman Alfred Edwards. Milan’s home kits are red and black and that is why the team’s nickname is Rossoneri (The Red and Blacks). The likes of Alessandro Costacurta, Paolo Maldini, Franco Baresi, Roberto Donadoni, Dejan Savicevic, Frank Rijkaard, Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Andrea Pirlo are the most famous footballers who have represented the San Siro outfit.
